The protecting element 120 encapsulates the side surface 116 a of the light emitting unit 110 a and exposes the upper surface 112 a, a first bottom surface 113 a of the first electrode pad 113 and a second bottom surface 115 a of the second electrode pad 115.

More specifically, as shown in FIG. 1, the upper surface 112 a of the light emitting unit 110 a of the present embodiment is aligned with a top surface 122 of the protecting element 120, a bottom surface 124 of the protecting element 120 is aligned with the first bottom surface 113 a of the first electrode pad 113 and the second bottom surface 115 a of the second electrode 115, and the protecting element 120 also can encapsulate or expose the lower surface 114 a of the light emitting unit 110 a located between the first electrode pad 113 and the second electrode pad 115. In the present embodiment, the side surface 116 a of the light emitting unit 110 a is perpendicular to the upper surface 112 a and the lower surface 114 a, however the invention is not limited thereto, and the light emitting unit 110 a, for example, is an LED with a light emitting wavelength (including but not limited thereto) in a range of 315 nanometers to 780 nanometers, and the LED includes but not limited thereto an ultraviolet light LED, a blue light LED, a green light LED, a yellow light LED, an orange light LED or a red light LED.

Preferably, the reflection rate of the protecting element 120 is at least greater than 90%, that is to say, the protecting element 120 of the present embodiment has high reflectivity characteristic, wherein a material of the protecting element 120 is a polymer material doped with high reflective particles, the reflective particle, for example but not limited thereto, titanium dioxide (TiO₂), and the polymer material, for example but not limited thereto, epoxy or silicone. In addition, a material of the first electrode pad 113 and the second electrode pad 115 of the light emitting unit 110 a of the present embodiment is a metal material or a metal alloy, for example, gold, aluminium, tin, silver, bismuth, indium or a combination thereof, however the invention is not limited thereto.

The high concentration fluorescent resin layer 214 will precipitate below the low concentration fluorescent resin layer 212, and the color of the high concentration fluorescent resin layer 214 is, for example, yellow, the low concentration fluorescent resin layer 212 is, for example, having a transparent property. Then wavelength conversion layer 210 of present embodiment is formed after curing. Preferably, a thickness of the low concentration fluorescent resin layer 212 is larger than a thickness of the high concentration fluorescent resin layer 214, and in one embodiment, the thickness ratio may be between 1 to 200 but not limited thereto.

After that, please refer to FIG. 17A first, a double-sided adhesive film 10 a is provided, the low concentration fluorescent layer 212 of the wavelength conversion layer 210 is disposed on the double-sided adhesive film 10 a so as to fix the position of the wavelength conversion layer 210 through the double-sided adhesive film 10 a. Then, a first cutting process is performed from the high concentration fluorescent layer 214 to a portion of the low concentration fluorescent layer 212 so as to form a plurality of trenches C1. After the first cutting process, a patterned wavelength conversion layer 210 is formed. Here, a depth of each trench C1 is at least a half of a thickness of the wavelength conversion resin layer 210. For example, the thickness of the wavelength conversion layer 10 is 240 micrometers, and the depth of the trench C1 is 200 micrometers. At this time, the trench C1 can distinguish the low concentration fluorescent layer 212 of the wavelength conversion layer 210 from a flat portion 212 a and a protruding portion 212 b located on the flat portion 212 a. The high concentration fluorescent layer 212 is located on the protruding portion 212 b.

Then, with reference to FIG. 17B, a plurality of light emitting units 220 are disposed on the wavelength conversion layer 210, wherein each light emitting unit 220 has an upper surface 222 and a lower surface 224 opposite to each other, a side surface 226 connecting the upper surface 222 and the lower surface 224, and a first electrode pad 223 and a second electrode pad 225 located on the lower surface 224 and separated from each other. The upper surface 222 of the light emitting unit 220 is located on the high concentration fluorescent layer 214 of the wavelength conversion layer 210 so as to increase the light extraction rate and improve the light pattern. The trenches C1 divides the light emitting units 220 into a plurality of units A, each unit A includes at least two light emitting units 220 in present embodiment (two light emitting units 220 are schematically illustrated in FIG. 17B). Each light emitting unit 220, for example, is an LED with a light emitting wavelength in a range of 315 nanometers to 780 nanometers, and the LED includes but not limited thereto an ultraviolet light LED, a blue light LED, a green light LED, a yellow light LED, an orange light LED or a red light LED.

After that, with reference to FIG. 17B, the adhesive layers 230 a is formed on the wavelength conversion layer 210 and extends to be disposed on the side surface 226 of the light emitting units 220. With reference to FIG. 17B, the adhesive layer 230 a is gradually thickening from the lower surface 224 of each light emitting unit 220 to the upper surface 222, and the adhesive layer 230 a has a concave surface 232 with respect to the side surface 226 of the light emitting 220 but not limited thereto. Here, the purpose of setting the adhesive layers 230 a is not only fixing the position of the light emitting units 220 but also improving the light extraction effect of the side surface of the chip since the adhesive layer 230 a is a light transmissible material and the index of refraction of the adhesive layer 230 a is greater than 1. The adhesive layers 230 a may be also formed on the wavelength conversion layer 210 before disposing the light emitting units 220 on the wavelength conversion layer 210.

Then, with reference to FIG. 17C, a reflective protecting element 240 is formed between the light emitting units 220, and the reflective protecting element 240 fills in the trenches C1, wherein the reflective protecting element 240 is formed on the wavelength conversion layer 210 and encapsulates each unit A, and the reflective protecting element 240 fills in the trenches C1. The reflective protecting element 240 exposes the lower surface 224, the first electrode pad 223 and the second electrode pad 225 of each light emitting unit 220. Here, the reflectivity of the reflective protecting element 240 is at least greater than 90%, and the reflective protecting element 240 is, for example, a white resin layer. The way of forming the reflective protecting element 240 is, for example, performing by dripping, wherein the reflective protecting element 240 directly encapsulates adhesive layer 230 a and extends to encapsulate the side surface of the high concentration fluorescent resin layer 214 along the adhesive layer 230 a, and the reflective protecting element 240 fills in the trenches C1. At this time, the reflective protecting element 240 is not over the first electrode pad 223 and the second electrode pad 225 of the light emitting unit 220.

After that, with reference to FIG. 17C, a second cutting process is performed from the reflective protecting element 240 and along the trench C1, and the low concentration fluorescent layer 212 is penetrated so that a plurality of light emitt g device 200 a separated from each other is formed. At this time, with reference to FIG. 17C, the wavelength conversion layer 210 in contacted with two light emitting units 220 in each unit A is continuous, i.e. the light emitting units 220 have the same light emitting surface, therefore the light emitted from the light emitting units 220 can be guided through the transparent low concentration fluorescent layer 212, so that the light emitting device 200 a has preferred luminous uniformity.

Then, with reference to both FIG. 17C and FIG. 17D, a reverse process is performed after performing the second cutting process. An ultraviolet adhesive film 20 a on the first electrode pads 223 and the second electrode pads 225 of the light emitting units 220 is provided first so as to fix the relative position of the light emitting devices 200 a. Then, the double-sided adhesive film 10 a is removed and the low concentration fluorescent layer 212 of the wavelength conversion resin layer 210 is exposed. Finally, with reference to FIG. 17E, the ultraviolet adhesive film 20 a is removed so that the first electrode pads 223 and the second electrode pads 225 of the light emitting units 220 are exposed. So far, the light emitting device 200 a is completely manufactured. It should be noted that in order to facilitate explanation, only one light emitting device 200 a is schematically illustrated in FIG. 17E.

With reference to FIG. 17E, on the structure, the light emitting device 200 a includes a plurality of light emitting units 220 (two light emitting units 220 are schematically illustrated in FIG. 17E), a wavelength conversion layer 210 and a reflective protecting element 240. Each light emitting unit 220 has an upper surface 222 and a lower surface 224 opposite to each other, a side surface 226 connecting the upper surface 222 and the lower surface 224, and a first electrode pad 223 and a second electrode pad 225 separated from each other which are located on the lower surface 224 and. The wavelength conversion layer 210 is disposed on the upper surface 222 of the light emitting unit 220, and the wavelength conversion layer 210 includes a low concentration fluorescent layer 212 and a high concentration fluorescent layer 214. The low concentration fluorescent layer 212 has a flat portion 212 a and a protruding portion 212 b located on the flat portion 212 a. The high concentration fluorescent layer 214 is disposed between the upper surface 222 and the protruding portion 212 b, wherein the high concentration fluorescent layer 214 encapsulates the protruding portion 212 b and touches the upper surface 222 of light emitting unit 200. The light emitting units 220 are arranged at intervals and expose a portion of the wavelength conversion layer 210. The reflective protecting element 240 encapsulates the side surface 226 of each light emitting unit 220 and encapsulates the wavelength conversion resin layer 210 exposed by the light emitting unit 220. The reflective protecting element 240 exposes the lower surface 224, the first electrode pad 223 and the second electrode pad 225 of each light emitting unit 220. The side surface of the reflective protecting element 240 is aligned with the side surface of the flat portion 212 a of the low concentration fluorescent layer 212.

The light emitting units 220 of the light emitting device 200 a of the present embodiment only touch one wavelength conversion layer 210, that is, the light emitting units 220 have the same light emitting surface, and a side surface of the low concentration fluorescent layer 212 is aligned with a side surface of the reflective protecting element 240. Therefore, the light emitted from the light emitting units 220 can be guided through the low concentration fluorescent layer 212, so that the light emitting device 200 a of the present embodiment may have larger light emitting area and preferred luminous uniformity. Besides, the reflective protecting element 240 encapsulates the side surface 226 of the light emitting unit 220, and the reflective protecting element 240 exposes the first electrode pad 223 and the second electrode pad 225 of the light emitting unit 220. Therefore, the light emitting device 200 a of the present invention does not require a conventional carrying support to support and fix the light emitting unit 220, and may effectively lower the thickness and manufacturing cost of the package. At the same time, the forward light emitting efficiency of the light emitting unit 220 can also be effectively increased.

It should be mentioned that the structural configuration of the adhesive layer 230 a of the present embodiment is not limited even though the adhesive layer 230 a illustrated in FIG. 17E has a concave surface 232 with respect to the side surface 226 of the light emitting 220 in particular. In other words, the reflective protecting element 240 further includes a reflective surface 242 in contact with the light emitting unit 220, and the reflective surface 242 is a curved surface in particular. However, in other embodiments, with reference to FIG. 18A, the light emitting device 200 b of the present embodiment and the light emitting device 200 a in FIG. 17E are similar. The main difference between the two lies in: the adhesive layer 230 b has a convex surface 234 with respect to the side surface 226 of each light emitting unit 220, therefore edge light emitted from the light emitting unit 220 occurring may be increased, and the light emitting area of the light emitting device 200 b may be also increased with the configuration of the wavelength conversion layer 210. In other words, the reflective surface 242 a of the reflective protecting element 240 a is a curved surface in particular. Otherwise, with reference to FIG. 18B, a light emitting device 200 c of the present embodiment and the light emitting device 200 a of FIG. 17E are similar. The main difference between the two lies in: the adhesive layer 230 c has an inclined surface 236 with respect to the side surface 226 of each light emitting unit 220. In other words, the reflective surface 242 b of the reflective protecting element 240 b is a flat surface in particular.

It should be noted here, the below embodiments utilize the same label and partial contents of the above embodiment, wherein the same labels are adopted to represent same or similar elements and the description of similar technical content is omitted.

FIG. 19A to FIG. 19E are schematic cross-sectional views illustrating a manufacturing method of a light emitting device according to another embodiment of the invention. The manufacturing method of the light emitting device 200 d of the present embodiment is similar to the manufacturing method of the light emitting device 200 a of FIG. 17A to FIG. 17E, and a main difference is that: with reference to FIG. 19A, a plurality of second trenches C2′ cut from the high concentration fluorescent layer 214′ to a portion of the low concentration fluorescent layer 212′ are further formed in performing the first cutting process. With reference to FIG. 19A, the position of the trenches C1′ and the position of the trenches C2′ are staggered arranged, wherein a depth of each trench C1′ is at least a half of a thickness of the wavelength conversion layer 210′, and a depth of each second trench C2′ is the same as the depth of each first trench C1′. For example, the thickness of the wavelength conversion layer 210′ is 240 micrometers, and the depth of the trench C1′ and the depth of the second trench C2′ are 200 micrometers but not limited thereto. At this time, the flat portion 212 a′ of the low concentration fluorescent layer 212′ has a thickness T, preferably, the thickness T is, for example, between 20 micrometers to 50 micrometers. At this time, the second trench C2′ can divide the protruding portion of the low concentration fluorescent layer 212′ of the wavelength conversion layer 210′ into two sub protruding portions 212 b′, and the high concentration fluorescent layer 214′ is located on the sub protruding portions 212 b′.

Then, with reference to FIG. 19B, the light emitting units 220 arranged at intervals are disposed on the wavelength conversion layer 210′, wherein the second trench C2′ is located between two light emitting units 220 of each unit A, the light emitting units 220 are disposed on the sub protruding portions 212 b′ respectively, and the upper surface 222 of the light emitting unit 220 directly touches the high concentration fluorescent layer 214′. Preferably, the ratio of the length of each sub protruding portion 212 b′ and the length of the corresponding light emitting unit 220 is larger than 1 and less than 1.35, that is, a side surface of the sub protruding portion 212 b′ of the low concentration fluorescent layer 212′ is outside the side surface of the light emitting unit 220, and a side surface of the high concentration fluorescent layer 214′ also extends outside the side surface of the light emitting unit 220 so that the light emitting area of the light emitting unit 220 may be effectively increased. After that, an adhesive layer 230 a on the side surface 226 of the light emitting unit 220 is formed, wherein the adhesive layer 230 a is merely disposed on the side surface 226 of the light emitting unit 220 and extends on the high concentration fluorescent layer 214′ of the wavelength conversion layer 210′, the adhesive layer 230 a does not extend to be disposed on the low concentration fluorescent layer 212′.

Then, the same as the abovementioned steps in FIG. 17C, FIG. 17D and FIG. 17E, with reference to FIG. 19C, the reflective protecting element 240 on the wavelength conversion layer 210′ is formed, and the reflective protecting element 240 encapsulates each unit A and fills in the trenches C1′ and the trenches C2′. After that, a second cutting process is performed from the reflective protecting element 240 and along the trench C1′, and the low concentration fluorescent layer 212′ is penetrated so that a plurality of light emitting devices 200 d separated from each other are formed. Then, with reference to both FIG. 19C and FIG. 19D, a reverse process is performed after performing the second cutting process. An ultraviolet adhesive film 20 a on the first electrode pads 223 and the second electrode pads 225 of the light emitting units 220 is provided first so as to fix the relative position of the light emitting devices 200 a. Then, the double-sided adhesive film 10 a is removed and the low concentration fluorescent layer 212′ of the wavelength conversion layer 210′ is exposed. Finally, with reference to FIG. 19E, the ultraviolet adhesive film 20 a is removed so that the first electrode pads 223 and the second electrode pads 225 of the light emitting units 220 are exposed. So far, the light emitting device 200 d is completely manufactured. It should be noted that in order to facilitate explanation, only one light emitting device 200 d is schematically illustrated in FIG. 19E.

Please refer to both FIG. 19E, FIGS. 20A and 20B, it should be noted that FIG. 19E is a schematic cross-sectional view along line Y-Y of FIG. 20A. The light emitting device 200 d of the present embodiment is similar to the light emitting device 200 a of FIG. 17E, and a main difference is that: the wavelength conversion layer 210′ exposed by two light emitting units 220 further has the second trenches C2′, wherein the second trench C2′ extends from the high concentration fluorescent layer 214′ to a portion of the low concentration fluorescent layer 212′. That is, two light emitting units 220 are disposed on a continuous wavelength conversion layer 210′, therefore, the light emitting units 220 have the same light emitting surface, and the side surface of the low concentration fluorescent layer 212′ is aligned with the side surface of the reflective protecting element 240. Therefore, the light emitted from the light emitting unit 220 can be guided through the low concentration fluorescent layer 212′, so that the light emitting device 200 d of the present embodiment may have larger light emitting area and preferred luminous uniformity.

Especially, in the first cutting process, the cutting depth in the direction of line X-X in FIG. 20A is substantially the same as the cutting depth in the direction of line Y-Y in FIG. 20A. That is, with reference to the cross-sectional view along line X-X in FIG. 20B, the flat portion 212 a′ of the low concentration fluorescent layer 212′ has a thickness T. With reference to the cross-sectional view along line Y-Y in FIG. 19E, the flat portion 212 a′ of the low concentration fluorescent layer 212′ also has the same thickness T. Preferably, the thickness T is, for example, between 20 micrometers to 50 micrometers.

Certainly, in other embodiments, the flat portion 212 a′ of the low concentration fluorescent layer 212′ may also have different thicknesses when cutting from different directions in the first cutting process. FIG. 21A is schematic stereoscopic view illustrating a light emitting device according to another embodiment of the invention. FIG. 21B and FIG. 21C are schematic sectional views along the line X′-X′ and the Y′-Y′ of FIG. 21A respectively. With reference to both FIG. 21A, FIG. 21B and FIG. 21C, the cutting depth along the direction of line X′-X′ in FIG. 21A is different from the cutting depth along the direction of line Y′-Y′ in FIG. 21A in the first cutting process, so that the wavelength conversion layer 210′ further includes a first exposed side portion and a second exposed side portion which are not encapsulated by the reflective protecting element 240. The first exposed side portion is not parallel to the second exposed side portion, and the thickness of the wavelength conversion resin layer 210′ at the first exposed side portion is different from the thickness of the wavelength conversion resin layer 210′ at the second exposed side portion. In detail, the flat portion 212 a″ of the low concentration fluorescent layer 212″ has a first thickness T1 in the direction of line X′-X′, and the flat portion 212 a″ of the low concentration fluorescent layer 212″ has a second thickness T2 in the direction of line Y′-Y′. The first thickness T1 is different from the second thickness T2. Preferably, the first thickness T1 is, for example, between 50 micrometers to 200 micrometers, and the second thickness T2 is, for example, between 20 micrometers to 50 micrometers.

Since the flat portion 212 a″ of the low concentration fluorescent layer 212″ has the first thickness T1 and the second thickness T2 different from the first thickness T1 in the direction of line X′-X′ and the direction of line Y′-Y′ respectively, the brightness decrease caused by dark band between adjacent two light emitting units 220 may be effectively reduced so as to improve the luminous uniformity of the light emitting device 200 e. Otherwise, it is worth mentioning that, taking the direction of line X′-X′ for example, when the thickness T1 of the flat portion 212 a″ of the low concentration fluorescent layer 212″ is increased from 0.04 millimeters to 0.2 millimeters, the light emitting angle may also be increased from 120 degrees to 130 degrees, i.e. the light emitting angle may be increased by 10 degrees. Briefly, the thickness of the flat portion 212 a″ of the low concentration fluorescent layer 212″ and the light emitting angle of the light emitting unit 220 have a positive correlation.

In summary, the reflective protecting element of the invention encapsulates the side surface of the light emitting device, and the bottom surface of the reflective protecting element exposes the first bottom surface of the first electrode pad and the second bottom surface of the second electrode pad of the light emitting unit, therefore the light emitting device of the invention does not require a conventional carrying support to support and fix the light emitting unit, and may effectively lower the thickness and manufacturing cost of the package. At the same time, the forward light emitting efficiency of the light emitting unit can also be effectively increased.

Besides, the light emitting units of the light emitting device in the invention only contact with one wavelength conversion layer, that is, the light emitting units have the same light emitting surface, and the side surface of the low concentration fluorescent layer is aligned with the side surface of the reflective protecting element, therefore, the light emitted from the light emitting unit can be guided through the low concentration fluorescent layer, so that the light emitting device in the invention may have larger light emitting angle and preferred luminous uniformity. Besides, the reflective protecting element encapsulates the side surface of the light emitting unit, and the reflective protecting element exposes the first electrode pad and the second electrode pad of the light emitting unit. Therefore, the light emitting device of the invention does not require a conventional carrying support to support and fix the light emitting unit, and may effectively lower the thickness and manufacturing cost of the package. At the same time, the forward light emitting efficiency of the light emitting unit can also be effectively increased.
